Chris, I know that this sounds almost unbelievable; however, my 6 was back in my hand in less than 48 hours from the time I took it into Fed X. Furthermore, I was supplied with a tracking number, an email when the phone was received, another when it was out for shipping, and a third when it was out for delivery. I have never gotten such prompt and thorough service previously.
Perhaps I should mention that I do not know to where my 6 was shipped for service. I had initially called Apple Care and was emailed an RMA number and told to take just the phone and that RMA number to Fed X who did the rest including the boxing of the phone for shipment.

Looking at possibly doing the same thing, and was just wondering how long I would have to go withou a phone. Chris On Apr 7, 2018, at 11:05 AM, Donald L.

Apple must have a super deal with Fed X to get such a low price for shipping. Don Roberts From: Bill Gallik Sent: Saturday, April 7, 2018 4:29 AM To: viPhone E-Mail List Subject: Re: iPhone 6 battery question I have an iPhone 6 that will be sent into Apple for a battery replacement for the discount offer. I have to send it in because I live in northern Wisconsin and the nearest Apple Store is about 175 miles away. I called into Apple (800-MyApple or 800-692-7753). The support associate asked that I turn off “Find My iPhone” so remote diagnostics could be run and he determined that the charge cycles had been exhausted and the only resolution was to have a new battery installed. I suggest you call into Apple and see if remote diagnostics reveals that your battery is likewise exhausted. If you are, like me, too far away from an Apple store you will be given the option of sending your iPhone 6 in to Apple for battery replacement. If you are fortunate enough to live relatively near an Apple store or certified repair center you will be able to take your iPhone to the nearest store or repair center and get the spent battery replaced for the discount price of $29.00. The caveat to all this is that there be no damage to your iPhone other than that customarily occurring with normal use and care. **************** - Bill from Ino, Wisconsin - "Last week I was diagnosed with insomnia, and now I'm just so tired of it." - Contributor Unknown -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
